In the cave, a little squirrel with bright purple hair looked at Lu Chen timidly. It felt that this person was very scary.

When Lu Chen saw Xiao Song burrowing straight into the hole and hiding behind the stone Buddha, he wondered what he was like in the eyes of other creatures.

He didn't disturb the little squirrel's practice, he just threw down a small bottle of spiritual fluid, which was a gadget dropped by the enemy. It can heal wounds and condition the body, and is only useful for low-level monks.

Then he jumped directly into the gap and followed the clues to move forward. This should be one of the few places on earth where one can come into contact with the dragon's veins.

After walking a few hundred steps forward and passing through an obscure crack, another world suddenly opened up in front of me.

You can see a long dragon-like mountain range crawling in the distance, with a huge mouth opening at the dragon's head. It is so lifelike that it makes people marvel at the magic of heaven and earth.

This is a manifestation of the transformation of dragon veins. Even in Beidou, you cannot find such large dragons.

The earth alone is not enough to give birth to ninety-nine such dragon veins. This was the great effort of the ancient heaven, and was later discovered and taken over by the Yuhua Shen Dynasty.

Behind Lu Chen's back, a small purple squirrel timidly hid behind a stone, peeking at Lu Chen's movements.

Lu Chen found it funny and turned around to wave, "Come here, I won't hurt you."

But when the little squirrel saw Lu Chen turning around, he trembled with fright and ran away quickly.

It wasn't until Lu Chen walked under the dragon's head and looked at the open mouth that the little squirrel ran over again.

After several trials, it found that the other party did not mean to harm itself, but its breath was too scary.

The little squirrel timidly raised a pine nut and handed it to Lu Chen like a treasure. Afraid that Lu Chen wouldn't understand, it put down the small jade bottle it was holding in its mouth and pointed at it, meaning to thank Lu Chen for giving it the spiritual liquid.

Lu Chen took the pine nuts, and Xiao Song bowed repeatedly, then disappeared again.

He smiled and began to check the end of the dragon's veins. There was a small depression under the dragon's mouth, with a few milliliters of earthly milk liquid remaining in it. It was flowing down from the dragon's mouth, and it looked a bit like ambergris saliva.

Xiaosong hid behind a stone not far away and looked at Lu Chen eagerly. That was what he relied on for daily practice.

"Don't worry, I won't steal it from you."

Lu Chen studied the dragon head and said to Xiao Song that this thing has a similar effect to the source and is only effective for monks below the fourth pole. What he came here to find is the dragon marrow. After arriving at the Dragon Transformation Realm, if there is no dragon marrow,

The speed of practice will slow down.

But Lu Chen studied this dragon vein for a long time, and finally came to the regretful conclusion that it was indeed exhausted.

This is not one of the ninety-nine dragon veins collected by the ancient heaven, but one that originally existed on the earth. When the heaven and earth are exhausted, this dragon vein has "died", and it is impossible to find the dragon marrow.

It seems that if you want to find the dragon marrow needed for cultivation, you still have to go to the forbidden place where the ninety-nine dragons gather.

He walked around here and found nothing, so he could only shake his head and leave.

When I walked out of the crack in the ground, a gust of wind blew behind me, and the little squirrel followed. It was holding a small stone bowl in its hand, which was almost as big as its body. It was raised above its head, looking very funny.

There was a little bit of ground milk liquid in the stone bowl. Xiao Song jumped up, meaning it was for you.

"This thing is of no use to me, you can keep it for your own cultivation."

Lu Chen lamented Xiao Song's innocent character, no wonder Ye Fan liked this little apprentice so much.

Lu Chen reached out and pointed at the little squirrel, which made him very scared, but he couldn't move away and could only close his eyes tightly.

But when it opened its eyes again, it found that nothing had happened, except that one of the hairs on the purple fur turned red.

Lu Chen didn't want to compete with Ye Fan for his apprentice, so he did it casually, leaving a sword intention to protect this innocent little guy.

Before leaving the snow area, he returned to the land where he first landed and dug down into the hole he crawled out of. He was confused at the time, but did not check it carefully.

Thinking about it now, it might not be a coincidence that he ended up here. Sure enough, after some searching, he found a dragon vein deep underground.

But unfortunately, like the one at Xiaosong's place, it has dried up and there is only a pool of milky liquid.

He put it away and planned to give it to Xiaosong the next time he saw him.

When he returned to the ground, a shadow rushed over and pounced on Lu Chen.

Lu Chen raised his hand to hold it against him. It was Gray Wolf. This lazy dog ​​stuck out its tongue and licked Lu Chen's hand, its tail wagging back and forth.

Lu Chen had used spiritual power to groom his muscles before. I have to say that this lazy dog ​​was very smart. He knew that Lu Chen was special and came to please him as soon as he saw him.

"Stop following me. Aren't you afraid that your cattle and sheep will be lost?"

Lu Chen laughed and cursed, this damn dog's shamelessness is like the shadow of the Black Emperor on the other side of the starry sky.

But Big Big Wolf persisted, rubbing against Lu Chen's body, as if he wanted to get some more benefits.

Helpless, Lu Chen could only pick up the lazy dog ​​and take it directly to Ram's house.

"God!"

There was an exclamation, and Pa Zhuo said in shock when he saw Lu Chen dragging Big Big Wolf towards him.

After the shock, he ran to Lu Chen very excitedly, "God of the grassland, please save our Ram?"

Lu Chen put down Big Big Wolf and frowned, "I'm not a god, what's going on?"

He said to himself that if something happens, you should go to the police uncle, but why go to me?

"That's it. Didn't Ram go on a trip before..."

Although Pa Zhuo was excited, his narration was quite clear, and he could explain it in a few words.

Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that it was still his fault.

Ram went on a trip with his classmates during the winter vacation and went to Mount Tai. However, he encountered an accident and was robbed.

It's funny to say that the girl who once thought Lu Chen was robbed and stripped naked while traveling was actually robbed while traveling.

But the person who robbed her was no ordinary person. Lu Chen guessed that it was a monk.

Pa Zhuo didn't know much about the details. He only said that his daughter sent a text message before she disappeared. She only typed two words, "Jade Pendant", and there was no further comment.

Of course, officials went to search after that, but after so long, there was still no news, and the person seemed to have evaporated.

Among Ram's classmates were people who went to Mount Tai together, but they all said they only saw Ram leaving with others and never showed up again.

"This is an oversight on my part. I happen to be going to Mount Tai, so I will pay attention."

Lu Chen said, as the saying goes, a man is not guilty of carrying a jade. That gadget is nothing to him, but to the monks in the Age of Dharma, it is a treasure.

The other party took Ram away, probably because they wanted to find out the origin of the jade pendant.

"Thank you God, thank you God."

Pa Zhuo thanked him repeatedly, but when he looked up, he found that Lu Chen had disappeared.

…………

Some time passed, and Lu Chen's broken jade bottle had been auctioned, and a huge sum of money was transferred to his account.

He asked people from the auction house to help him buy a villa in a quiet area in City B. The remaining money was transferred to Ye Fan's parents, but he expected it would end up at the orphanage.

Although he had settled on a residence, he did not live there. He just asked the two old people to move there.

He looked up at the high mountains in front of him. Taishan swallowed Xihua, pressed Nanheng, drove Zhongsong, and Yibeiheng. It was the leader of the Five Mountains.

Ancient Chinese ancestors often regarded the majestic and strange Dongyue as a god, and worshiped the mountain god as an object to pray for good weather. Therefore, Mount Tai, located in the east, became an "auspicious mountain" and "the birthplace of all things".

The House of the Gods.”

The "Son of Heaven", who was appointed by Heaven to be an emperor, regarded Mount Tai as a symbol of national unity and power. In order to repay the favor of the Emperor of Heaven for his "entrustment", he would also go to Mount Tai to worship the gods.

It is said that in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor once climbed Mount Tai, and Emperor Shun once patrolled Mount Tai. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, King Xiangtu of Shang built the Eastern Capital at the foot of Mount Tai, and the Emperor of Zhou built Qilu with Mount Tai as the boundary. Legend has it that before the Qin and Han Dynasties, 72 generations of kings came to visit.

Mount Tai was enshrined as a god. After that, Qin Shihuang and other ancient emperors came to Mount Tai one after another to offer sacrifices and carve stones to commemorate their merits.

Originally, later generations thought that the emperors of the past dynasties were relying on the power of Mount Tai to consolidate their rule, but at least in this world, Mount Tai is definitely a sacred mountain, and the kings of the past dynasties came here not just to show their respect for heaven and earth.

In Lu Chen's spiritual perception, this mountain is tall and majestic, far more majestic than it appears on the surface. Even compared to Beidou and Ziwei Ancient Stars, it is definitely a first-class majestic mountain.

What happened to Ram was beyond his expectation, but he was also worried about finding people in the spiritual world to explore the ancient secrets. Now as long as he found Ram, he would be able to follow the clues and come into contact with the world behind him.

In today's Dharma-ending era, monks also live a very low-key life. The cultivating families usually look like ordinary people, and the children also go to school.

As for things like fighting with each other, they are becoming less and less common. After all, in a society governed by law, killing someone will cost you your life.

Therefore, Lu Chen didn't think too much before. He didn't expect that there would be a brave monk who would attack ordinary people.

Strictly speaking, this violates the unspoken rules among modern monks.

Before climbing the mountain, Lu Chen passed by the parking lot of Mount Tai Scenic Area and suddenly remembered an interesting incident when he was talking to Ye's father and Ye's mother a few days ago.

How much parking fee does Ye Fan have to pay for his Mercedes-Benz fifteen years later?

He had this doubt before, but after asking Ye Fan's parents, he learned that the car was driven back not long after Ye Fan's accident.

But because Ye's father and Ye's mother seldom went out, they sold it directly and donated all the money to the orphanage.

He climbed the mountain all the way and met several monks during the process, but the highest level was only the other side realm. He looked young. With such cultivation at such a young age in this Dharma-ending era, he must be a descendant of a family of practitioners.

Lu Chen stopped a few people, took out his mobile phone and pointed at Ram's photo and asked, but the young monks knew nothing.

Oh, of course the questioning process is not very pleasant. After all, young people who practice spirituality are arrogant and will not be cooperative if they don't show their hands.

Finally, Lu Chen came to the place where the Nine-Dragon Coffin landed, which was also the place where kings of all dynasties were enshrined. Here he met several young people, and the one with the highest cultivation level actually had the Dao Palace realm.

The man in the lead, with his majestic appearance, was chatting and laughing with the fellow Taoist beside him, telling rumors about Mount Tai.

Seeing Lu Chen approaching, his heart tightened inexplicably. He felt that this young man was very threatening, and he was probably not a mortal.
